True that. We’re talking about the Times World University Rankings. Why is UVA is even being discussed here since it’s ranked so lowly? |
?? Do you mean “so low”? |
No, he just taught there . https://faulkner.lib.virginia.edu/ |
Stop misleading people delusional booster. From the article: "Here you can listen in on William Faulkner’s sessions with audiences at the University of Virginia in 1957 and 1958, during his two terms as UVA’s first Writer-in-Residence." Faulkner was a 'writer in residence' for 2 years - he did not teach at UVA. If you want to count people such as 'writer in residences, fellows, visiting scholars, visiting researchers etc. etc., UNC has dozens. |

That could be the reason that UNC overtook UVA to be the #4 top public. |

Everyone in the U.S. is obsessed (incorrectly) with Rhodes Scholars. Look at Bill Clinton! The Marshall is far more elite but no one in the U.S. knows that. |
No, as you well know, that is all Pell grant and social mobility driven. Virginia has a wealthier base than N Carolina ergo there is no way on earth UVA can compete on the Pell grant front, just as it can't with California. If you aren't aware, a university has no idea whether or not an applicant is Pell grant eligible when they accept them. That comes after the fact. So long as USNWR rewards no of Pell grants, it will continue to reward states with disproportionately poor demographics. Everyone knows this. |
[/b] Nevertheless, he was there - you said he wasn't. He was there teaching. So UVA gets to claim affiliation. You could have reserached this. Took me two seconds to find |
Oh for God's sake, no one cares here about UNC. STOP UNC booster. UNC, unlike UVA at 30%, takes less than 10% OOS. No one from DCUM land can get in! just stop it. Glad you went there but stop. |
| Way to go Stanford!! |
+1. UNC is irrelevant to this website, DCUM |
By that logic, any university visited by a Nobel prize winner can claim affiliation. The list would be massive. The Nobel website recognizes where the laureate studied and their association at the time of the work. Neither applies for Faulkner. |
